Hot Water Reclamation Pressure Washing
Hot or Cold Water “Reclamantion Pressure Washing” and Steam Cleaning services in Seattle, Bellevue, Redmond, and Kirkland, WA. Contact us for a bid and cleaning proposal for standard pressure washing or storm water friendly reclamation pressure washing.
Hot or Cold pressure washing seamlessly integrated with waste water reclamation. Usually performed due to environmental rules and regulations, or specific project logistical challenges such as lack of proper drainage, or leaking surfaces, it generally involves the use of more equipment and deployment resources, in addition to requiring greater experience, planning and preparation...
Industrial Hot Water Machines
MI-TM Corp. Industrial grade commercial hot water skids. Belt driven pressure pumps incorporating gear reduction, powered by 20hp Honda small engines. Integrated 110v generators fire the fuel oil burners with power to spare for running auxiliary equipment such as water pumps or lighting in dark conditions.
Powerful Custom Built Industrial Vacuums
Our custom built industrial vacuums use positive displacement roots blowers to supply vacuum pressure to the carbon steel vacuum tanks, and are powered by 20hp Honda small engines. Vacuum equipment requires a lot of energy, and generates a lot of excessive noise, which is often a problem in real world working conditions, so we fit the blower exhaust ports with multiple 3" Magnaflow automotive mufflers.
Environmentally Sound
Regardless of the use of hot or cold wash water, protecting the quality of our storm water runoff is not only imperative for the continuation of our civilization, it is also the law of the land. Not only do we protect the storm water infrastructure with 100% capture/0% discharge, we can leave it better than we found it by cleaning out catch basins of stored settled solids and free oils, leaving them perfectly clean down to bare concrete, ready to accept a fresh prime by new flow...
Methodology
Hot or Cold Pressure Washing With Remote Waste Water Capture
For certain situations it may be required or desired that we block off the drains and reclaim all the wash water. In this scenario and generally speaking for outside or other exterior areas, where it is faster and more labor efficient to proceed with normal hot water pressure washing tactics, we simply deploy one or more towable (custom built by our company owner) waste water vacuum trailers that are towed behind our pressure washing trucks. These waste water vacuums are 500 gallon capacity carbon steel vacuum tanks, that are essentially miniaturized vacuum trucks, in a small, low profile trailer version powered by gasoline engines and “positive displacement roots vacuum blowers”, that can be taken into low clearance structures, but are totally capable of hydro-excavating thick sediment from catch basin vaults or sucking up wash water. We proceed with normal hot water pressure washing tactics, except that we first block off drains and set up wash water containment by various methods using neoprene vacuum booms that suck down to the ground, or lay flat hose that we fill up with clean water that creates long linear water containment areas. This could also be something as simple as placing a traffic cone upside down in a downward drain pipe, or laying a thick trash bag full of water over a drain grate. The workers continue to pressure wash as normal with traditional rotary surface cleaners and traditional hand held lances, but vacuum hoses are extended to the low areas where wash water accumulates, scupper heads attached to the end of the hoses that suck up the wash water for storage and transport to a disposal plant, or pumped off onsite to a suitable discharge point, which can often be a permeable surface such as grass or flower beds, or a sanitary sewer access point, such as a floor drain or trench drain in a trash area. Essentially this process looks just like standard pressure washing except for the added equipment required to vacuum up waste water and sludge.
